A fondness for seafood on this side of the Mississippi River – Pass Christian

Beach Sports Stadium Casino Fort Mississippi

The city of Pass Christian is a place of history, beach days, and seafood! Residents bask in the laid-back splendor of the Gulf Coast, and living here is as much an attitude as it’s a place to call home.

Travel down Highway 90 and you’ll be in Biloxi to see the Mississippi Sea Wolves hockey team. Interstate 10 leads to a gateway of professional sports teams too…in New Orleans. The hour’s drive makes it easy for Pass Christian residents to take in a Saints game at Mercedes-Benz Superdome, or to watch the Jesters score goal-on-goal-on-goal at Pan American.

With its prime location by the sea, there’s no shortage of seafood restaurants. Golfing is a way of life here, and there are more than 20 courses in and surrounding the city. Ship Island is a couple of miles off the coast – and you have to take a ferry to get there. Once you’re on the island, you can tour the historic Fort Massachusetts ruins or spend the day relaxing on its pristine beaches.

Residents not only love their Pass Christian apartments, but also the community events that foster a friendly neighborhood presence. The Crawfish Cook-Off is a big one for the locals, as is the Crab Festival and Saint Clare Seafood Festival – are you picking up on a theme here?

The Mississippi Gulf Coast has all the best casinos on this side of, well, the Mississippi River.
